That works too
Or you could just take them back and get a replacement for free

Steerage/suspension/brakes I just count the uga dugas. and I'm a "pro". LOL

Inside the engine/transmission/rear end I will either use my HF wrench or I steal a snapon wrench from work.

I don't believe its so much the wrench or the quality of it. Its all about the calibration and when the calibration was done last. I know the snapon wrenches at my work get calibrated often so I can trust them. NOW if I had the choice between a NEW Harbor freight tool and a rusty ancient Mac tool... I'll take the HF one.
